Chapter Six Hundred and Thirty Second Beauty Thorn
I saw a sword on the storage shelf next to it. This sword is not too long. The hilt and scabbard together add up to more than 70 centimeters.
The most striking thing is that the shape of this sword is very beautiful. The whole sword is like a mermaid. The hilt is wonderfully carved. It is the upper body of a long-haired beauty. Beautiful pattern, also inlaid with a few red gems.
Qin Haodong reached out and took the dagger into his hand, only to see three traditional characters engraved on the handguard of the sword hilt—beauty thorn.
If ordinary people would definitely regard this sword as a vase-style sword, Qin Haodong felt a strong spiritual energy and murderous aura from the sword. It is certain that this sword is not only beautiful but also capable of killing people.
He held down the hilt of the sword and pulled it out gently. The body of the beauty thorn was exposed to the air, and a murderous aura came towards him.
"Yes, it's a good sword!"
Qin Haodong praised, in terms of the quality of the sword, this beauty thorn is hundreds of times stronger than the butterfly sword at auction, and it is not inferior to the boy Chi Angang in the hands of Liusheng Xueji, even in appearance, it is better than the butterfly sword. More elegant and beautiful.
Sir Owen and Fred had been following behind. They were quite surprised to see Qin Haodong just walking around in the treasure room without checking any of the collections. At this time, seeing that he finally took down a sword, they stepped forward and asked. : "Mr. Qin, did you like this sword? It's really beautiful."
Qin Haodong nodded, "That's it, I'll pick six more."
"Ok, no problem."
Sir Owen agreed very happily, without any distressed appearance. It is no wonder that he is just an ordinary person, and he cannot see the value of beauty thorns at all.
If it were another master-level powerhouse, this sword would definitely be regarded as a treasure.
At this time, Nalan Wushuang, who was looking at the antiques, also rushed over. Seeing the beauty thorn in Qin Haodong's hand, he immediately exclaimed, "What a beautiful sword."
Qin Haodong stabbed the beauty in front of her: "Give it to you."
"Great, such a beautiful sword, I really like it!"
Nalan Wushuang immediately accepted it happily.
Afterwards, Qin Haodong walked around the treasure room again. Although the treasure room was very large, he read the whole place in less than an hour.
Unfortunately, apart from this beauty thorn, there is nothing that can impress him, and there is nothing like the magic wand.
But it's normal to think about it. You need a chance to encounter an artifact. If you can see it everywhere, it's not called an artifact.
Sir Owen came over and asked nervously, "Dear Qin, isn't there anything you like here?"
He was afraid that Qin Haodong would not find something satisfactory, so he took back those Picasso paintings.
Seeing to see his thoughts, Qin Haodong said with a smile: "Sir Owen, don't worry, I am an honest person, and since I agree to exchange with you, I will not regret it.
But there really isn't anything I like here, so I'll let my girlfriend choose the rest. "
After that, he handed over the selection of the collection to Nalan Wushuang.
Since seeing Qin Haodong's magical skills in making ancient paintings, Nalan Wushuang has no interest in the picture scroll works here.
She chose two pieces of Yuan blue and white, two pieces of porcelain from the Song Dynasty, and two vases from the Qing Dynasty, which was the end of the selection. These things are high-quality goods. If they are brought to the auction, they can be sold for at least 100 million Huaxia coins.
They left the treasure room and returned to the living room. The china that Nalan Wushuang chose was specially sent by Dr. Owen to the Li family.
Qin Haodong, the head of the zodiac rooster, insisted on taking it with him. This thing is more important to him now than anything else. If something goes wrong on the road, he will never be able to make up for it no matter what.
If it wasn't for so many people watching, he would have put this thing in the storage ring long ago. The beauty thorn Nalan Wushuang also liked it very much, so he took it directly on his body.
The exchange was completed. Dr. Owen was very excited. He asked Fred to open a bottle of champagne that he had kept for many years, poured a glass for Qin Haodong and Nalan Wushuang, and said excitedly, "Dear Qin, toast to our successful cooperation!"
Qin Haodong touched a glass with him, and then drank the champagne in the glass.
Putting down his glass, he said to Sir Owen: "Sir, there is something I would like to ask of your help."
"Dear Qin, feel free to say anything, we are friends now."
Qin Haodong said: "Sir Owen, I know that you have many friends in the storage industry, and I still have some Picasso paintings in my hand. I don't want to exchange anything else, I just want to exchange all our Chinese zodiac signs.
Can you help me publicize it so that collectors with zodiac signs will take the initiative to exchange with me, or you can exchange their zodiac signs and then exchange Picasso paintings with me. "
"What, you still have a Picasso painting in your hand?"
Sir Owen's eyes widened sharply. Picasso's sketches had already taken him by surprise. He didn't expect this Chinese man to have hidden goods in his hands.
If it weren't for the difference in race, he really thought that Qin Haodong was Picasso's illegitimate son, otherwise how could there be so many Picasso paintings.
Qin Haodong said: "Yes, there are some more, but this time I will not change anything, only the bronze heads of the twelve zodiac signs."
He knew that Sir Owen was very influential in the world of collecting, so he wanted to take advantage of this opportunity to collect as many bronze heads as possible.
Sir Owen asked, "Qin, can you tell me how many Picassos you have in your hands?"
Qin Haodong said, "Sir is honest, I have three sets of Picasso's sketch albums in my hand, and today I'm exchanging one of them with you, in addition to a set of children's pictures and a set of still life pictures, each set is 10 A sketch, and 10 paintings by Picasso."
Fred said incredulously: "You said, you still have 30 Picasso paintings in your hand?"
Qin Haodong smiled and nodded: "That's it!"
Sir Owen was stunned for a moment, and then came back to his senses. He felt like he was going crazy. In recent years, he couldn't find a single Picasso painting, but now there are so many of them all at once.
He couldn't care less about maintaining his gentlemanly demeanor, and exclaimed excitedly, "Qin, you must be Picasso's illegitimate son, it must be like this!"
Qin Haodong said with a smile: "Don't make such a joke, I am a pure Chinese."
After calming down for a while, Sir Owen said: "I do know a lot of big names in the collection world, and they all have many, many collections, maybe even the bronze heads of the twelve zodiac signs.
But I want to ask, how do you want to exchange with them? If there is no temptation, I am afraid they will not take things out. "
Qin Haodong said: "Well, you can help me promote a set of Picasso's picture albums and exchange for a bronze head of the Chinese zodiac. Do you think the price is attractive enough?"
"Yes, it's too much!" Sir Owen was excited again, "I'm so sorry now, why did I take that zodiac snake head to the auction, it would be nice if I stayed and exchanged Picasso's paintings with you. ."
He doesn't regret the exchange just now. Although this 12-zodiac rooster head has only been exchanged for three Picasso paintings, both parties are voluntary. This is the principle of the antique world.
He said again: "Qin, can you use Picasso's paintings and exchange some other things in my treasure house? This time, for one painting, I can let you choose two Chinese treasures."
Qin Haodong spread his hands and said, "Sir, there are indeed a lot of good things in your treasury, but unfortunately I'm not interested, all I want is the bronze heads of the twelve zodiac signs.
If you can, you can use the treasure trove to exchange it with others, and then exchange it for the painting in my hand. "
"That's a pity," said Sir Owen. "But don't worry, I'll spread the news for you, and someone will come to you to exchange it soon."
"Thank you sir, then we won't bother."
After saying goodbye to Sir Owen, Qin Haodong and Nalan Wushuang hurriedly returned to the Li family villa.
When they got home, Sir Owen had already sent someone to bring those collections over. Qin Haodong didn't care much about these things, so he put away the storage ring.
After finishing everything, he made a simple defensive formation in the room, took out the chicken head, untied the seal outside, and took out the high-grade spirit stone hidden inside.
He asked Nalan Wushuang to protect the Dharma by the side, and then began to prepare to absorb this high-grade spirit stone and move towards the later stage of Jindan.
This time, unlike last time, Nalan Wushuang was already a sixth-grade master, and it was enough to protect him.
Holding the top-grade spirit stone in the palm of his hand, Qin Haodong began to move slowly, and Aoki Changsheng True Qi absorbed the aura emitted by this spirit stone.
Nalan Wushuang stood by the side with the beauty thorn and carefully protected him.
Time passed minute by minute, and an hour later, with a crisp sound, the top-grade spirit stone completely turned into powder.
Qin Haodong slowly opened his eyes, but a hint of disappointment flashed across his face.
Nalan Wushuang asked, "How is it? Have you made a breakthrough?"
Qin Haodong shook his head. Compared with before, his golden core was just more rounded and solid, and it was also larger, but it was still a long way from the later stage of golden core.
It seems that if you want to break through to the later stage of Jindan after the cultivation base reaches the middle stage, it is not enough to rely on the aura of a high-grade spirit stone.
He sighed, the higher the cultivation base, the higher the demand for spiritual energy. This problem is really not easy to solve in the earth where there is a lack of spiritual energy. At present, we can only rely on the high-grade spirit stones in the bronze heads of the zodiac.
He said: "Now a high-grade spirit stone is not enough for me to break through. At least one more is needed. The most urgent task now is to find another zodiac bronze head."
Nalan Wushuang said: "I don't know if Sir Owen helped us spread the news. Is it possible for him to hide the news, and then go to find the bronze heads of the zodiac, and come back and replace the paintings in your hands?"
